| + | ===== Line of Sight of a Team Member is not Shown Entirely ===== | ||
| + | Usually you can see all that your team members see, too. This goes with one exception: If a part is uncovered for a player only due to an active [[Romulan Spy]], then these units and stations are not part of the shared line of sight. Meaning a ship that is very much visible for your team mate due to being spied upon is still not visible for you, if it is cloaked. | ||
| ===== Freighters Behavior ===== | ===== Freighters Behavior ===== | ||
| All [[Freighter|Freighters]] will continue gathering Dilithium from a newly chosen Dilithium Moon, once the Moon they are working on runs dry. They will select the nearest Moon still having Dilithium. That usually leads to the situation, that two empty Freighters and one partially filled one will head into the direction of a new moon. They will gather Dilithium there and return it to the [[Mining Stations|Mining Station]] they were returning the Ore to before. If that partially filled Freighter does empty entirely and stay at the Mining Station instead of heading out and filling the rest of their cargo hold, you can be sure that there is no Dilithium out there anywhere any more. | All [[Freighter|Freighters]] will continue gathering Dilithium from a newly chosen Dilithium Moon, once the Moon they are working on runs dry.

| + | The opposite is also true. If you lose a ship to an opponent, e.g. by beaming in crew from his ships or using other means of taking over the ship, the control group is actually still stored. Meaning, if you regain control over that ship, it will also be part of the control group once again. Only exception: You were reassigning the control group in the meantime. | ||
